NN-HEF'llLLAlBLE BOTTLE..

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 783,625, dated February28, 1905. Application led May 5, 1904:. Serial No. 206,519.

le it known that I, MICHAEL (j. DicLANnY, of Syracuse, in the county ofOnondaga, in the State of New York, have invented new and usefulImprovements in Non-Refillable Bottles, of which the following, taken inconnec tion with the accompanying drawings, is a full, clear, and exactdescription.

This invention relates to the class of bottles I O which are providedwith means for {n'eventing the same from being refilled.

The object of this invention is to produce a bottle which shall be verysimple in construction, eiicient in its use, and at the saine time I5shall be inexpensive to manufacture; and it consists in the novelconstruction and arrangement of the component parts, as hereinafterfully described, and set forth in the claims.

ln the accompanying drawings, Figure 1v is a longitudinal section of aportion of a bottle embodying' my invention. Figs. 2, fi, and LL aretransverse sections on lines X X, Y Y,and Z Z, respectively, in Fig. 1;and Fig. 5 is a detail side view of the liquid-conducting cone appliedto the interior of the neck of the bottle.

lteferring to the drawings, A denotes the bodyV of the bottle, which isformed with the usual neck B, bothof which may be of any suitable style.'lhe lower portion of the neck is provided with an internalcircumferential shoulder or rib a, and the upper portion of said neck isprovided with an internal circumferential groove l U represents ametallic tube which is fitted closely to the interior of the neck andbears with its inner end upon the said shoulder a. lhis tube may beformed from any suitable non-corrosive metal which will permit the sameto be expanded to produce an external bead c, engaging the aforesaidgroove 7) in the neck, and thereby permanently lock the tube in theneck. 'lo elfectually guard against malicious removal of the tube by theinsertion of a tool or instrument between the outer end of tube andneck, I provide the interior of the neck with acircumferential shoulderZ above the groove t, against the under side of which shoulder the outerend of the tube abuts, as shown in Fig. l of the drawings.

l li l l) represents a hollow truncated cone through which the liquid isconducted when discharged from the body of the bottle. Said cone isdisposed centrally within the tube C and with its smaller end extendingItoward the mouth of the neck and is rigidly secured at its linner orlarger end to the inner end of said tube in any suitable manner. Thecone is also composed of suitable non-corrosive metal and i preferablybears upon the aforesaid shoulder u in the neck. The said cone l) isprovided in one side, preferably at outer end, with an outlet-opening a,which end is closed by means of a transverse platej', which has aportion of its edge contiguous to the tube (l and is arranged with apassage y I ietween the plate and tube, which passage is disposed at theopposite side of the cone. 'lhe contiguous edge of the said plate isprovided with airports f. In the inner end of the cone l) is rigidlysecured a pluguf, provided with a central port a, through which the liuuid is discharged, and in the outer face of this plug and surroundingthe port is provided a concave valve-seat in which is normally disposeda semispherical valve c. Said valve is pivotally connected to the plug,preferably by means of au ear nl, formed thereon, which is insertedbetween similar ears a w', and a pin passing through said ears, whichlatter ears project from the top faceof the plug, as more clearly shownin 8O Fig. 3 of the drawings. The aforesaid plate j' is arranged overthe outlet-opening f ol the cone and constitutes a guard serving to prevent the introduction of an instrument through the opening and therebytampering with the valve.

f2 represents a weight loosely suspended from the valve and which isfastened to a rod g, which is provided with a cross-bar /t, engaging aneye or loop vf, formed on the lower end of the stem if, depending fromthe valve. Said weight serves to insure the closing of the valve, andthe cross-bar coming in contact with the under side ofthe plug serves asa stop limiting' the opening movement of the 95 valve. lV hen the bottleis in its tilted position and attempt is made to :force liquid into thesame, the described loose cormection of the weight and valve allows thelatter to close l independent of the weight. l The lower portion of theaforesaid cone D l is provided with small air-ports i if These iair-ports, in connection with the aforesaid airl ports f2 f2, serve asvents to facilitate the discharge of the liquid. i

A' represents the cork, (shown in dotted lines,) which is inserted intothe mouth of the bottle in the usual manner.

That I claim as my invention is l. In a bottle of the class specified,the combination with the neck,-of a hollow liquid-conducting conerigidly secured therein and disposed with its smaller end extendingoutward and provided in one side near said end with an outlet-opening, atransverse guard-plate secured to said end of the cone andpartly'closing the neck to form a passage between the opposite side ofthe cone and neck, and a valve controlling' the discharge of liquid fromthe body of the bottle into the cone as set forth.

2. In a bottle of the class specified, the combination with the neck, ofa'hollow liquid-con# ducting' cone rigidly secured therein and disposedwith its smaller end extending toward the mouth of the bottle andprovided in said end with an outlet-opening and having a guard abovesaid opening, a plug secured in the inner end of the cone and providedwith a discharge-port and in its outer face with a concave valve-seatsurrounding` said port, and a semispherical valve hinged to the outerface of the plug and adapted to enter said seat, and a weight suspendedfrom said valve as set forth.

8. In a bottle ofthe class specified, the combination with the neck, ofa liquid-conducting cone rigidly secured therein and provided with anoutlet-opening, a guard above said opening', a hinged valve in the innerend of the cone and provided with depending' stem formed at its free endwith an eye, and a weight provided with a rod formed with a cross-bar bywhich it is loosely suspended from said stem I Vfor the purpose setforth. I

4. In a bottle ofthe class specified, the combination with the neckprovided with an internal circumferential shoulder at its lower por- ,ition, of a tube iitted tightly to the interior l of the neck and seatedupon said shoulder, a hollow liquid-conducting cone secured at its Ilarger end in the inner end of said tube and provided in one side nearits smaller end with an outlet-opening and provided with a guardoversaid opening, a plugsecured in thelarger end of the cone andprovided with adischarg'eport and with a concave valve-seat surroundingsaid port, and a semispherical valve adapted to enter said seat andhinged to the outer face of the plug as set forth.

5. In a bottle of the class speciiied, the com-V bination with the neck,of a tube permanently locked to the interior thereof, a hollowliquidconducting cone rigidly secured at its larger end in the inner endof the tube and provided in one side with Van outlet-opening, atransverse guard-plate secured to the outer end of the cone and arrangedwith a passage between the plate and tube at the side opposite theoutlet of the cone, and a valve disposed in the larger end of said coneas set forth.

6. In a bottle of the class specified, the combination with the neckprovided with an internal circumferential groove, of a metallic tubefitted to the interior of said neck and formed with an external beadengaging said groove and permanently locking the tube to the neck, ahollow liquid-conducting' cone disposed within the tube with its smallerend extending outward and provided thereat with an outletopening, andrigidly secured at its larger end to the inner end of the tube, a guardsecured to the outer end of the cone over said opening, a plug' securedin the larger end of the cone and provided with a discharge-port andwith a concave valve-seat in its outer face and surroundingsaiddischarge-port, and a weighted semispherical valve hinged to the plug'as set forth.

7. In a bottle of the class specified, the combination with the neck, ofa hollow liquid-conducting cone rigidly secured therein with its smallerend extending outward and provided in one side with an outlet-openingand with a transverse guard-plate on said end disposed over the openingand having air-ports at its edge, said guard-plate arranged with apassage between it and the neck, the cone having air-ports in one sideat its lower portion, and a valve controlling the discharge of liquidVfrom the body of the bottle into said cone as set forth.
